Network Proximity Error
I have a 1TB Sky Q box and one mini box. The Sky Q box was connected via ethernet and the mini was connected using WiFi however a couple of onths ago the mini box stopped connecting via wifi. I have now connected it via ethernet but the signal drops out, the broadcast freezes and I get network proximity errors mutiple times a day to the extent that the mini box is unwatchable. Has anyone else had this issue and if so, how do I fix it? I've had the same set up for years and this problem only started about 2 months ago.

Re: Network Proximity Error
Have you turned Wi-Fi off on the mini box, it may still be trying to use that than Ethernet.

Re: Network Proximity Error
@Sovereign+Sharon Has the Wi-Fi come back on again on the mini box? Did you try a network reset on the mini?
